Zack Zackerson, Head Social Media Guru / Virality Ninja of the social media startup ClymbEr, addresses Trump's inner circle in the only room at Mar-a-Lago with a projector:
When you first brought us in to help boost your PR and increase favorable user engagement with the White House brand, you posed a simple question: How can we make people care about -- let alone be impressed by -- military activity that ultimately may serve no purpose, particularly when we've been in a state of draining perpetual war for 15-odd years now?
Well, I am proud to say that the "Mother of All Bombs" was the top TWO trending topics on Twitter for most of a full day:
TwitterTry and beat that shit, United.
And we were the #1 story on the New York Times trending bar, obliterating whatever that boring-ass third story is:
The New York TimesNo one is wasting one of their ten free articles on a #3, buddy.
It's all everyone's been talking about for DAYS now, at a time when most news stories fizzle in nanoseconds. So I know what you're asking: How did we crush this so hard? Simple. We followed the Two Key Steps to PR Virality:
STEP 1: BRAND IT
It's impossible to get anyone to notice run-of-the-mill military stories these days. Imagine seeing the headline "Four Killed In Drone Strike In Yemen." Who cares? Doesn't that happen like twice a day? People need something new. Something concise, snackable. Something they can latch onto and make Twitter jokes about for like eight hours. Engagement.
That's where "Mother of all Bombs" comes in. It's distinct, it's easy to Google, and it handily captures the Call Of Duty demographic. It's a catchy phrase you haven't heard before, and you instantly have an opinion about it. Remember when Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin had their "conscious uncoupling"? If they just broke up, it would've been out of the news in one day. But once you hear that specific phrase? We're talking Twitter jokes for days, late-night jokes for months, and morning radio jokes for an ageless eternity.
